So Unlike Me

I'm not one to complain about the weather. If it gets too cold, I go to my condo in Florida. If it gets too hot, I stay inside my a/c home. However, I'm complaining now!
This morning I returned from my 6 mile morning walk, dripping wet, including my hair. My cleaning lady offered me ice water and laughed at the sight of me. So off I went to shower, as usual.
After doing errands, I had to take, Doodles the cat, for his morning walk. He was smart. He stayed in the shade. What did I do for the 30 minutes he was resting and not walking? I pulled weeds.
I felt lightheaded and faint. I had to shower yet again.
This humidity is awful! I'm a whiner, not a complainer. I'm complaining now!

@DianneN We've been extremely hot and humid since June. And we usually have about a week of that in June and another maybe in July and that is usually it for the extreme summer weather, but that is all we've had except for a few days here and there.

Yeh, we get the heat but the humidity stuff would likely kill me. I'd complain a bunch! Makes you want to stay in a cool shower, right? Cute pic! Large cotton candy!

I hear ya on that humidity, my gracious its awful. Where do you live in the United States? I live in Canton, Pa that Northeastern Pennsylvania and I know it could be worse. The weather report says 58% humidity but it feels a lot higher it is 90 by the weather report, 85 in the shade. I am looking forward to the fall with its cooler weather and beautiful colors. We are surrounded by mountains so we don't have to go far to see the foliage this fall. We are blessed for sure.

I heard that it is a scorcher in the East right now, so I don't blame you for complaining about the weather. I hope it cools off a bit, soon!

At least you can always have options to get cooler inside your A/C home or in Florida. Your cat is so funny, instead of walking he just stayed in the shade?

@DianneN The pleasant rains over, sweltering heat which will be broken by rains for a couple of days. The weather pattern has changed over the years....
